Crimson > there is no question most Jews regard themselves as part of a chosen people far superior to gentiles.

That's the point I was trying to make.

> in this they may be correct considering the huge Jewish overepresentation at the upper levels of academia, science, Wall Street, media, law, politics, billionaires,etc. which has been a fact of life for centuries (although never as much as today).

If it's true, then all the more reason they should be modest -- unless, of course, they wish to be hated for their arrogance. Furthermore, one is likely to find that those who are in these upper levels of academia etc are neither particularly religious nor Zionistic eg Einstein, and are most probably liberal, non-racist and progressive. Indeed, I would wonder how many Jewish intellectuals one would find as supporters of AIPAC, ADL etc?

> the idea that that this superiority in the skills of life and money making translates into any kind of moral superiority is a BIG LIE IMHO as israeli massacres, land theft, and aggression have shown time and again.

That's the whole point and, IMO, it highlights the failure of religion, or quasi-religion like Zionism, as offering a workable modus vivendi in our multicultural and multiracial world.
